One Piece: World Conquest Begins with Creating a Little Empress

At this moment, Shanks became a sensation even if he didn't want to!

Meanwhile, the World Government announced Shanks' bounty...

Because Shanks was a former apprentice on Roger's pirate crew and successfully 'escaped' from the hands of the legendary Marine hero Garp, the Marines ultimately set Shanks' bounty at a staggering 2,534,800,000 Berries!

Among his crew members, the bounty of the first mate, Ben Beckman, is incredibly close to Shanks's 2.313 billion Berries. Following him is the Red-Haired Pirates' combatant, Hawkeye Mihawk, whose bounty is 2.2978 billion Berries.

Besides these, there are the Red-Haired Pirates' executives, led by Yasopp and Lucky Rouge! After some deliberation, the World Government finally set their bounties at around 700-800 million! In fact, this level of bounty is already at the level of high-ranking officers in Yonko crews…

Excluding Whitebeard, among Kaido's Beasts Pirates, only King the Wildfire and Queen the Plague, both of whom are considered top members, have bounties above 700-800 million! Jack the Drought is currently still playing in the mud on Fishman Island...

Of the Big Mom Pirates, only three have bounties over 700 million: the eldest son Perospero, the second son Katakuri, and Cracker! As for Smoothie, who should have also had a high bounty and possessed the strength of a high-ranking member of a Yonko crew, her bounty has been revoked by the World Government because she is Char's wife. As for Snack, he has not yet grown up.

Yes, other pirate crews only have three or four, but Shanks' crew has a total of eight or nine high-ranking pirates!

With the addition of top-tier fighters Shanks, Beckman, and Mihawk, the Red-Haired Pirates are undoubtedly a revolutionary pirate crew, and calling them a super-Emperor crew wouldn't be an exaggeration...

In terms of personnel, the Red-Haired Pirates at this moment have already taken the form of the original Roger Pirates, with Roger, Rayleigh, and Jabba as the three main fighters, along with a group of powerful officers, making them a force to be reckoned with...

After the Red-Haired Pirates entered the New World!

The newspapers about the Red-Haired Pirates have fallen into the hands of the four great pirates now known as the 'Four Emperors'.

New world, Whitebeard Pirates.

"Heh! Isn't this that annoying red-haired brat from Roger's ship back then?! When he left the New World, I thought he was giving up! I didn't expect that not long after, he's back again!"

"He's only just returned to the New World, and he's already making such a big fuss. The World Economic Herald is publishing a special issue on him, and the Navy is rushing to update his bounty! Does he think he's some kind of idol or actor?!"

Edward Newgate, with his white beard, was disdainful of Shanks' actions!

In Whitebeard's opinion, Shanks' actions were far too flashy!

Serious pirates never make such a big spectacle! Only actors and idols constantly release news and create hype...

"Let me see..."

"Heh, just arrived in the new world and already got a bounty of 2.5 billion?!"

"The world government really values ​​him!"

"However, if Shanks can have a bounty of 2.5 billion, then can't I also have a bounty of over 2 billion?! After all, the scar on his body was left by me!"

Upon opening the newspaper and seeing the bounty poster for "Red-Haired" Shanks, Marshall D. Teach's expression changed slightly, but he chuckled and made a loud, sarcastic remark.

"Hahaha……"

As Teach finished speaking, everyone present burst into laughter.

"Speaking of which, Shanks has made such a big fuss, acting like he's going to tear the entire New World apart. I wonder if he's planning to challenge the Emperors of the Sea for their rightful place here?!"

Marco's intuition was always sharp. He looked at the newspaper in his hand, thought for a moment, and then asked the people present.

"This one……"

As Marco finished speaking, all the pirates present were stunned.

"That's very likely!"

In response, Vista narrowed his eyes and said this.

"I wonder who this guy is targeting?!"

Diamond Joz thought for a moment, then looked at Vista and Marco and asked.

"Wang Zhi? Charlotte Linlin? Or Kaido?"

With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, he spoke with a cold expression, puffing out smoke.

Ever since Whitebeard's failed attempt to defeat Kaido, he has developed a habit of smoking!

Smoking can relieve some of Yizang's stress and make him feel more relaxed.

"If only it were Kaido!"

Xiaoju stood beside Yizang and murmured to herself.

Over the years, Kiku has grown a lot! After experiencing so many battles, Kiku has now grown to the level of the vice-commander of the 16th Division of the Whitebeard Pirates! She is considered a well-known expert in the Whitebeard Pirates, and the Navy currently has a bounty of 130 million Berries on her.

"..."

As Kiku finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates changed.

Marco even came to Kiku's side, as if to comfort her, and gently patted Kiku's shoulder, indicating that everything would be alright!

At this moment, silence speaks louder than words...

"Let's just say..."

"With Shanks making such a big fuss, could he be heading straight for us?!"

Just as everyone fell silent...

Diamond Joz crossed his arms in front of him and spoke with a puzzled expression.

Although everyone present believed that Shanks would never choose to challenge their father, Edward Newgate, the Whitebeard—after all, their father was the most powerful man in the world—what if, just what if they were Shanks's target?!

After all, among the Four Emperors who rule the New World, only the Whitebeard Pirates had ever had a grudge against Shanks!

"Um?!"

"Pfft hahaha..."

"How is that possible?!"

"Unless Shanks has gone mad, he will absolutely not come toward us!"

"Yes! Yes! Dad is the most powerful..."

For a time, all of Whitebeard's sons firmly believed that Shanks would never come to fight their father!

After all, their father, Whitebeard, was the most powerful man in the world. For Shanks to fight against his father would only lead to his death.

"What I'm saying is, what if Shanks suddenly does something rash?!"

Joz felt embarrassed and kept nagging.

"Absolutely impossible! This kind of thing could never happen..."

However, at this moment, no one in the Whitebeard Pirates believed that Shanks would come to challenge Whitebeard, and even Whitebeard himself did not expect it.

Or rather, Whitebeard simply didn't care whether Shanks challenged him or not; he was absolutely confident he could defeat Shanks...

Compared to the composed white beard...

The other three sea emperors of the New World were in a much more panicked state!

Beehive Island.

"All troops on high alert! Everyone must be prepared to defend against the enemy..."

"The enemy is that monster apprentice from Roger's pirate crew! If we're even slightly careless, we'll be the ones who die in the end..."

The entire Hive Island was mobilized! This shows Shanks's importance in Wang Zhi's eyes.

"Damn Shanks, why doesn't he just stay put in the world?!"

"With your powerful background, you shouldn't even look down on our paltry sums in the New World. Why bother competing with us for such a small amount of money?!"

"So what I'm saying is! Those who are born with everything, don't try to freeload off us! Do you really want to drive us to the brink of despair?!"

"Isn't this a bit too much?! The Figarand family, you know!"

Wang Zhi spoke weakly, rubbing his temples.

After Shanks entered the New World, the most panicked among the Emperors of the Sea was Wang Zhi!

After all, among the four sea emperors currently on the high seas, Wang Zhi is the weakest in terms of both power and strength!

The structure of Beehive Island is different from Charlotte Linlin's family-style pirate crew and Whitebeard Edward Newgate's family-style pirate crew!

Beehive Island is more like Kaido's Beasts Pirates, a massive pirate organization formed entirely by Wang Zhi's individual strength! However, the relationships between members are not as strictly hierarchical and distinct as those in the Beasts Pirates; everyone is relatively more free. The reason Wang Zhi was made the leader of Beehive Island is purely because Wang Zhi's strength is sufficient...

This leads to Beehive Island falling apart like a pile of loose sand whenever a powerful enemy invades! Most people's first thought isn't how to fight the enemy, but how to escape and avoid having their interests harmed! Of course, if it's about bullying the weak, these pirates are quite happy to do it; they're very good at it…

As for the Beasts Pirates, who are far away in Wano Country.

"Boss Kaido, what if Shanks invades our territory?!"

A member of the Beasts Pirates asked Kaido, who was the admiral, a question.

"Then fight!"

Upon hearing this, Kaido's brows furrowed tightly, and he roared angrily.

"Oh!!"

As Kaido finished speaking, the members of the Beasts Pirates present all let out long howls to cheer him on. Kaido wasn't afraid of fighting Shanks at all; winning or losing was just a pleasure for him! This is why so many pirates are attracted by Kaido's charisma and immense strength, and thus pledge their allegiance to him.

The New World, Whole Cake Island, the territory of the Big Mom Pirates!

At this moment, Charlotte Linlin, the admiral of the Big Mom Pirates and the Queen of Whole Cake Island, is making a phone call to Katakuri, who is far away in Windmill Village.

"Bulu Bulu..."

"Click..."

After Katakuri discovered that it was Charlotte Linlin calling him, he didn't hesitate for long and answered the phone immediately.
